Hey everybody, say hi to Brian! Brian’s a longtime friend of the site and a former auto writer for the NY Daily News. He’s in Sweden these days, so he’s gonna be bringing us some occasional forbidden fruit Euro car reviews.

DTJ is the spitting image of his father where he thinks everything he says and does is completely brilliant and hilarious, but he couldn’t be more fucking rock stupid if he was cloned out of a piece of shale.

I don’t say this lightly, and I mean no disrespect to people who are intellectually limited...

They’re not banned - there’s no law prohibiting it - but the Secret Service highly encourages they not drive on public roads, and for the most part they observe it. LBJ (of course) was the last former president to ignore the suggestion

How do you as a waitress know if it is a money issue? If we split a dish, it means we have more money to tip you. Now, if you start being a worse waitress because you think you won’t get as big of a tip, well you are right you will be lucky to get a penny. Remember you judged me by what I ordered or what I look like…

Current and former presidents have the same rights as any other citizen. They can tell the Secret Service to fuck right off and then go drive what they like.

I used to dream of driving across all states in the US in a manual Ferrari F430, and write blog posts as I go. I imagined my F430 stopping by the road, the only part that is pretty much clean is the windshield that has been wiped by the wipers, and cows grazing at a distance. Probably somewhere along the way I’d sleep…

These aren’t exactly lethal airbags or excessive rollovers. They’re minor improvements that they don’t even have to make, but are.

This is every manufacturer of every product.

“How am I supposed to open the door handle with one hand, it takes two!”

That guy is a joke. We’ve had EVs now for a while. What percentage of accident require cutting power to the battery? How do access compare to other cars? I had an BMW i3 which Munro swooned over with the SAME emergency issues...I don’t think there is ANY way to open the frunk of an i3 from the outside to get to the…

Imagine if F1 used this as an opportunity to raise awareness for causes or segments of the population who could use it. Replace the Grid Girls with Grid Heros. For instance, how about cancer survivors at one race, or military veterans at another, or disadvantaged youths at another, or...

Good riddance. Prancing around half-naked is a man’s job.

“When is a Tesla not a Tesla?”

Yes, of course. The FBI is out to get Donald Trump. Is that where you’re going with this idiotic and unrelated statement.

But it was the revelation that the supervisor of the unit instructed officers to carry a toy gun just in case they found themselves “in a jam” and needed to plant one.

This is infuriating. I’m going to guess that even if a federal judge rules that there is a clear cut case of corruption that everyone these officers arrested in their career history won’t get their cases reexamined.

In America there is no excuse for not using Waze every place you go, in Europe (especially Germany) Blitzer.de provides better data, but Waze is still useful. I’d recommend you use both.

Fixed it for you.

Are you serious??!!?? This is just about the worst dental advice ever. ALWAYS rinse, and rinse thoroughly, after you brush. Every dentist I know says not rinsing is one of the worst mistakes people make with their dental hygiene. We've just loosened the food debris, plaque, and bacteria from our teeth by brushing and…
